Committee Projects
The Weed Committee has several ongoing efforts including cooperative weed management projects in the Jack Creek and Meadow Creek watersheds.
Madison County Biocontrol.
The Weed Committee is proud to facilitate and and support the Madison County Biocontrol Project. The MCBC works to collect, release and redistribute biological control agents that attack noxious weeds.
Cost-share Program.
The MVRG Weed Committee will implement a cost-share program designed to assist private individuals or organizations treating noxious weeds in the Madison Valley. The “Good Neighbor” cost-share program shall support integrated noxious weed management methods including but not limited to herbicide application; mowing or other mechanical methods; targeted grazing; biological control.
Education and Outreach.
The Weed Committee works to bring noxious weed awareness to the community by offering trainings; participating in youth camps; awarding ‘Best Noxious Weed Project” at the local Science Fair; writing articles and offering our “MVRG Weed Committee’s Larry Zabel Memorial Scholarship” each year. Each year we produce a scenic calendar featuring Madison Valley scenery and noxious weed education.
